Husband secretly supports his mother with 50% of his salary, then begs her best friend not to tell her when they find out the truth, drama ensues: ‘He needs to come clean’

We love moms. I love my mother and you might love your mother, but when it comes to familial generosity, a provider has to keep in mind their immediate family as well. A spouse is your partner in life and deserves to be privy to sensitive financial information, especially when you've been hiding for months that you're paying 100% of your mom's bills (bless her heart), while struggling to pay your own. 

There's nothing noble about going bankrupt because of your overzealous generosity. While mothers everywhere deserve the whole world, sometimes we can't afford to give it to them. This man in our next story loves his mother dearly, and after a long stint of being unemployed, he finally found a job with his wife's best friend's cousin. Glad for the financial relief, his wife was still confused and peeved that their statements were still in the red every month. Where could that money be going?
